+Three release options are now available for 32-bit: Our bare-bones CD ISO, a bare-bones bootable USB disk-key image (minimum 1G USB stick needed), and a GUI bootable USB disk-key image with a full X environment. The GUI USB image replaces the DVD ISO image we had in the previous release, to work around issues with DVDs simply being too slow to boot an X environment from.

-We offer over 8000 pre-built [pkgsrc](http://www.pkgsrc.org) packages for this release. The [pkg_radd(1)](http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=pkg_radd&section=ANY) utility may be used to download pre-built binary packages. By default this script will query the main package site for a random redirect to one of our mirrors. The path can be overridden by setting BINPKG_SITES in `/etc/settings.conf`.

-We supply a Makefile in /usr to track the pkgsrc tree. We also supply a GIT mirror of the NetBSD pkgsrc CVS repo as

-well as the pkgsrc/wip (work in progress) repo at git://git.dragonflybsd.org/pkgsrc.git and we recommend that

-users use it instead of pulling from NetBSD with CVS. Our GIT mirror is updated four times a day.

+**Virtual PC users** - Virtual PC does not supply serial numbers for the virtual disks. The system may need to be manually directed in the boot loader if the disk identifier changes. (Hit ? in the boot loader for a list of available volumes.)

-## DragonFly 2.6.0 Release Notes

+**Binary packages issue** - Due to bugs in pkgsrc-2009Q4 we had to use pkgsrc-current for the x86_64 img/iso

+and both GUI images for 2.6.1. The i386 img/iso uses pkgsrc-2009Q4. The binary packages on avalon are thus a bit

+out of date for the x86_64 and GUI images. Both i386 and x86_64 binary packages have been upgraded

+to pkgsrc-2010Q1 for 2.6.3.

+

+**disklabel64 issue** - The installer may fail to install a 64-bit disklabel due to a snooping

+bug in the kernel if a 32-bit disklabel was previously present on the drive. If you get this

+failure, you can re-run fdisk -IB <drive> from a shell and then retry. CAUTION: USE THIS METHOD
